Ambre Solaire No-Streaks Bronzer

I like to take care of my appearance and I am usually very careful about the products that I choose, generally as a result of suffering from allergies for years and intolerances to certain ingredients contained within some beauty products. I tend to research the items which I fancy trying out quite thoroughly and will normally get samples and testers before I commit to purchasing a full-sized product. I am not a mean Scot I just don't like to waste money needlessly!! Unfortunately I was going out one evening and I did not take my own advice. I had bought a lovely dress to wear as the venue was a very fancy restaurant however I had not been well with that horrible ...  Read the complete review

As I have mentioned in previous reviews I am very much an English rose, so yes sometimes I do fake it. Having a nice healthy (not orange) tan can give a girl added confidence, and generally just make you feel happier about yourself. So probably around once a month, at the mo (more often in summer. I do my own fake tan. I used to get them done in salons but having had so many bad experiences - ORANGE tango woman the day of my brothers wedding from StTropez! Then I found a great beatician who brought her spray booth to my house, that was great as she put on just enough to give me a good tan, but unfortunately she is curretnly off on maternity leave. So I have had ...  Read the complete review

Now I must admit I am a sucker for good advertising, so when trying Ambre Solaire No-streaks Bronzer I was hoping for a gorgeous glow with no streaks like the bottle claimed. I had read a couple of reviews and it said that it was a good fake tan. I got the medium colour of the product as I have olive skin but wanted to build up my colour a bit. I was excited and rushed home to try it out. I followed the instructions carefully down to the last one. You just spray onto skin and rub in. I waited for it to dry a little longer than suggested before getting ready and then I went to bed when it was definitely dry. I woke up the next day and I had a glow ...  Read the complete review

As a pale skinned girl who sometimes likes to blend in with the crowd and avoid having people ask 'are you feeling quite alright, you're looking rather pale! - I 'have been through most of the fake tanning products out there to find one that does a great job and is not too expensive to boot. This retails at around £7 - £8 depending on where you shop, I like to keep an eye out for it in Bodycare as it's usually a bit cheaper still in there and when I find it I stock up! I've been using this tan for some time now, and noticed that the formula of this has recently changed somewhat therefore I'm basing this review on the current product and focusing on ...  Read the complete review

I've used lots of different kind of fake tans before and was going to try fake bake or st tropez this time but with times being hard finance wise I decided on Ambre Solaire £8 for the body one and £6 for the face. I am very pale and so went for the 'light' version. Before starting I exfoliated and moisturised well, then applied the tan. I applied as stated on the can, spraying from a distance of 30 cm in regular motions and didn't rub in. It's very easy to apply, it sprays at every angle and took less than 5 minutes to apply. The scent of the tan is quite pleasant at first and not as chemical smelling as some of the others. Although this does give ...  Read the complete review
